Thanks Garg, but I am worried if I bought it, the delivery guys would mess up where I wanted it dropping and squash my roses.
What the hell is wrong with you amaricans!

Seems like the issue with friendly fire is that it has always occurred. My grandfather is a WWII veteran who fought in Iwo Jima. His Marine Corps Division was always harrassed by the Navy bombers! The air groups couldn’t believe the infantry would advance so quickly and assumed they were Japanese. His C.O. at one point had to lay a large US flag on the ground to stop his men from getting killed…
-
Keep in mind, at least if you believe our government, almost all the casualties in Afganistan to US soldiers was the result of friendly fire.
-
Ill keep it in mind but I don’t believe them.
-
Exactly my feeling. I can’t believe all but 1 or 2 casualties over there were friendly fire. The Government is trying to paint US soldiers as invinceable.
-
Why does the government lie to us even though they probably know we know they are lieing. I can see how they might want to keep a specific project top secret like an airplane or something, but that pisses me off how they lie about the simple things in life like a casualty report.
-
Why does the government keep saying Delta Force doesn’t exist when we all know they do? The Government likes to keep secrets.
-
I have no clue what delta force is, so clue me in.
-
The Most elite troops in the army. Think Army Rangers x10.
-
What reason do they have to lie about that to the american people?
-
Cause they do the dirty work the government doesn’t want you to hear about.
-
We are all humans. We all do dirty work we don’t want other people to know about; but somehow it comes up. The government should just tell us about things that aren’t really that secret. If we know about the delta force, what will happen? Will we riot? I honestly don’t think so, but history is full of suprises.
-
that is enough government bashing!
The reason they lie about casualties is so the people don’t lose support for the war.
-
(i know i promised no more posts - this is strictly informative) . . .
an interim report demonstrated that the Canadians “played it by the book” in the friendly fire incident in Afghanistan. -
Horten, life sucks without government bashing. And IMO, they lose more support in the war by lying to citizens. I would think that the way society thinks now adays, that if we knew they took more of our lives, then we would want to take more of theirs.
-
The government will try keep quiet anything they feel is vital to national security, or makes them or the country look bad. It’s only natural. It may seem like their treating us like children and later on they’ll have some lame reason for doing it. Hey, they make mistakes, too. Every country in this world does it. At least here we can have an election every 4 years…
-
I prefer a corrupt government to anarchy any day!
-
We’re a democracy, if we, the people, don’t want to stop the war because of casualties, then the war should stop.
-
Hey, folks! No need to argue. After all, we’re all part of the same country–- the United Commonwealths, Provinces, States, and Territories of Amerrica. We just put up with Canadians thinking they are a separate country bettter than the People’s Republic of China(PRC) puts up with that little upstart province that calls itself the Republic of China(ROC).
LAUGH AT YOURSELVES—ME, TOO.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!This too serious for a fun website.
-
Tiwan is seperate from China. Tiwan is were all the capitilsts fled back in 49.
and Canada is vary seperate from the US just look at our beer canadian’s drink real 5.5-6% beer and in the states they drink barley flavored water. ( what is it like 3.8% Ha anything under 5% is for children and the elderly)
-
MP,Get real! You wouldn’t even have a 'country if we weren’t protecting your delusions. The PRC would have invaded you with an army of 10 million or more.
